  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Transportation Walk Instead
    Half of all trips made in the US are three miles or less; 72% of them are driven. Does this statistic describe your own transportation habits? If so, how might you incorporate more muscle-powered transportation in your daily life?

    This positively affects myself because it helps be stick to a healthier diet. It positively affects the planet because eating less meat means less water will be used to produce the meat.
